Senate To Probe Hgwsprint Hike

WASHINGTON (UP) —Chairmah Warren G. Magnuson DWash., said today his Senate Commerce Committee will soon ■nvestigate recently-announced increases in the price of newsprint. Magnuson said his committee staff has been working on an investigation of newsprint prices since mid-November. He said he will confer in New York Monday with Cranston Williams, general manager of he American Newspaper Pub.shers Association, about the effect on the newspaper business :f the $4 a ton price hike recently announced by three major Canadian newsprint producers. Jther mills are expected to foljw suit. “It’s the little papers that •.‘'ally get hurt by this increase,’’ Magnuson told a reporter. “They can’t absorb it.” The chairman gave no date the public hearings on the price hike rut informed sources said they uay start in mid-February. Magnuson announced the hearirsgs after a Republican member )i his committee. Sen. Charles E. Potter. Mich., publicly urged an immediate investigation of the price increase and the “skyrock■?L.ng profits” of Canadian newsprint firms. Potter said Canadian mills proiuee SO percent of the newsprint u- d by American publishers. He aid the St. Lawrence Corp., one f t films which announced the me:ease from $130 to $134 a ton, showed profits 58.7 per cent greater in 1955 than 1954 “American newspapers, espe-

cially the smaller on*, feee t!W most serious repercussions as a result of this latest price rise,” Potter wrote to Magnuson. “Small businesses are discovering that their advertising budgets buy less and less. This situation will force many of them to the wall unless we take action.” Tigers At Vaipo For Tilt Tonight First in a series of three crucial ICC contests for DePauw will find the Tigers playing tonight on Valparaiso’s home court. Currently leading the conference with a 5-0 record, two full games ahead of second-place Ball State, DePauw also can look forward to next week’s home games against Butler Tuesday and Indiana State Friday. The Bengals late as a decided underdog in tonight’s affair, despite their lofty position, thanks to the absence of (1) two firststringers and (2) height. Always a rugged outfit which is especially dangerous on its home floor, Valparaiso should control the backboards with the rebounding of 6-6 Neil Reincka and 6-5 Ed Eckart Missing from the DePauw Lineup will be 6-7 Chuck Cleaver and 6-2 Bob Schier, a pair which would normally account for approximately 30 points and 20 or more rebounds Probable Tiger vStarters are 6-0 Tom Johnson and 6-3 Bing Davis at the forwards, 6-5 Dwight Tallman at center, and 6-0 John Bunnell and 6-2 Joe Lawlor or 5-11 Morrie Goodnight at guard.

Israel Blocking ^vpfian Peace CAIRO (UP)—Sources close o the Egyptian government said oday failure of Israel to withdraw its forces from the Sinai Peninsula threatens to wreck everything the United Nations iic achieved thus far tow r ard re- . A ring j eace in Egypt. Egypt will resort to “other methods” unless all Israeli forces withdraw behind the truce demarkation line stipulated in the 1949 Egyptian-Israeli agreement, the sources said. Although the sources did not claboiate on the “other methods” onsidered by the government of President Abdel Nasser, observers believed Egypt could either close the Suez Canal to future navigation or take up arms against Israel. Earlier, the semi-official Arab news agency Mena charged that Israeli troops occupying the Gaza Strip committed "unspeakable atrocities” against Arab civilians, including what it called the cold-blooded murder of about 8.000 Gaza youths and a number of Moslem religious leader s.

Amicable Western ‘Big Three’ Meet Now Seen as Probable

Anglo-French Bow to U. S., UN Wishes Clears the Way

Special to Central Press Association X^taSHINGTON—Top Washington officials now expect a Big iV Three “harmony at the summit” meeting to be held before Jan. 1. President Eisenhower rejected the pleas of British Prime Minister Sir Anthony Eden and French Premier Guy Mollet for such a conference as long as British and French troops were in Egypt. The Anglo-French decision to bow to the demand of the United States and the United Nations and withdraw the troops is believed to have cleared the way for the parley of the western Big Three leaders. Plans are expected to be announced as soon as it becomes clear that Eden's government has weathered the parliamentary storm which has buffeted the British cabinet since the beginning of the Suez crisis. The three great powers are in agreement on a basic point: the Western Alliance must present a solid front against the Kremlin. American, French and British diplomats all say that the solidarity can best be shown through a friendly get-together on the part of Mr. Eisenhower, Sir Sir Anthony Eden Anthony Eden and M. Mollet. * * * ♦ 9 BRITISH STORM—Sir Anthony is in for a real storm at home and there are some who do not believe he will survive as prime minister. The British politicians are holding their fire until Britain and France have withdrawn their military forces from Egypt and the United States program for making up her oil deficit is tinder way. When these situations “stabilize,” look for real political explosions in the House of Commons. Eden has lost considerable support from his own Conservative party which may spell bad news for him. In the latest vote of confidence, for instance, he suffered a damaging loss in prestige when 15 Conservative “rebels” abstained from the vote. Informed Washington sources believe Eden’s illness was “timed” to get him out of London during the period when England had to execute a reversal in military policies toward Egypt. * * * * 9 DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP—Adlai E. Stevenson’s statement that he won’t run again for President came as no surprise but it may lead the way for a wild scramble for leadership in the Democratic party. As the so-called titular leader of the party. Stevenson was in a position to exert strong leadership in the party. However, he will carry a lot less weight in party councils now. Even before Stevenson made his flat “I will not run again” assertion, the Democrats already had a fight in their midst over what course the party should follow. This is sure to be intensified now. A group of Democratic liberals, headed by Senator Hubert Humphrey of Minnesota, is openly challenging the conservative wing of the party and the Senate leadership of Senator Lyndon Johnson of Texas. The battleground will be the next session of Congress. Humphrey and other liberals may even line up with Republicans on crucial issues to defeat the strong Dixie Democratic bloc. ♦ * * * • TAX HASSLE—Even though the Eisenhower adn inistration has made apparent its opposition to any tax cuts in the coming year, the Democrat-controlled 85th Congress may assign top priority to legislation ending excise taxes when End of it convenes in January. Excise The taxes, most of them installed as war emergency measures, have been assailed by almost every Duties: segment of the economy and a House ways and means subcommittee has been listening sympathetically to the complaints. A bill reducing the excise levies is expected to win quick committee approval after the first of the year and got through the House with little hesitation. The Senate may go along with the tax cut move. While none of the reductions will be sizable, p; isage of the bill would give the Democrats a chance to have a vote-appeal record in 1958.
